This is all because you are using the Ubuntu 18.04 package which is about 4 years out of date and is from the era where HyperKitty, Postorius and django_mailman3 still ran under Python 2.1.7.
Unless you want to remove the Ubuntu package and install everything with pip, you need to just stick with what you have that at least partly works and we'll try to determine how to fix the utf8mb4 issue.
Hi Mark,
You're a very patient soul. Thank you.
Yes, I'm resigned to exactly that. The archives when folks send emojis will break, but that's just life. Mail will get sent. Heck, I guess I could edit the file in /var/lib/mailman3/archives/hyperkitty/spool to get rid of the emoji in the worst case...
Once I've migrated my 1500 mailing lists (this weekend) to the server, I'll think about how to get a new server set up that I can shift to and I'll install that with pip, since that'll clearly give me something more supportable.
Is Ubuntu 20.04 a reasonable platform for that?
Cheers,
David
